Looks great Rydor!
They make Ram mounts that fit the 9mm bolt holes...you knew that right? (sucks that you cut the plastic to hell)
The Ohlins makes a huge difference in looks over stock as well as performance. _________________ Bane of your existence since July 2006

It's only a $13 part - pretty cheap in the BMW scheme of things. _________________ 93 LT (x2)

Ouch!
I just need to resist duel-sporting with it. (not going to happen)
I told Steve, one day I'd like to have two complete suits for her.
One outstanding blue evening dress for nights on the town and one dirty pair of jeans for playing on the back roads.
Maybe I just need two K1100RS's  _________________ 1993 K1100RS aka The Shop Whore

Shogs I think it's amazing that after all your biking experience and having ridden some of the best and "funnest" and fastest and dirt-worthy bikes out there you prefer the RS.
What's the draw?
Oh yeah,

That machine is just sexy, rydor.
I'd accuse you of showing off, but I suppose I would do the same. _________________ tlp

the battery is already black - or close to it. Just peel the sticker off. _________________ Jim
